The property is generally considered comfortable, with a warm atmosphere and homely touches. However, some guests found the mattresses and seating to be less comfortable, and the upstairs bedrooms can become overly warm.

Located in the heart of Withernsea, East Yorkshire, a stone's throw away from the bustling high street, is The Old Police House, a characterful, five-bedroom home. Oozing both charm and style, The Old Police House offers a wonderful base for a large group break or celebration, inviting twelve guests to the coastline, complete with a hot tub, a private games room, and flexible sleeping arrangements. Benefit from private secure parking for one car in the garage with further spaces available on the neighbouring road, and be welcomed by the grand exterior of your new home, ahead of reaching the sitting room, where you can unwind after a day of traveling. Continue through to the well-equipped kitchen/diner, complete with state-of-the-art appliances to ease your self-catered stay and ample seating where you can dine together; here you'll find all the essentials, including a washing machine, dishwasher, and coffee machine. As the evening unfolds, head upstairs to the first-floor sitting room for a quiet nook, or enjoy some friendly competition in the games room, complete with arcade games and a pool table, before climbing into the babbling hot tub for an indulgent soak; the patio also offers the perfect space for alfresco dining, with your two furry companions in tow. Catch some rest from one of five bedrooms, including a ground-floor double, serviced by a shower room, whilst on the first floor you'll locate two further doubles, a twin, and a bunk room, serviced by a bathroom. Awaken to explore the area, starting off with a tour of Withernsea Lighthouse Museum, a stroll along Withernsea Central Promenade and Beach, or a round of golf at the Withernsea Golf Club, before purchasing the essentials for a night in, or heading to the local pub for a tipple. Hull and its centre of attractions is nearby, where you can discover the Streetlife Museum, book tickets to attend a show at Hull New Theatre, or head to The Deep, one of the most popular aquariums in the world. Remaining near the shore, enjoy a day out at Hornsea Beach, or a visit to Bugtopia Hornsea Zoo, before grabbing your walking boots to hike across the Kilnsea Wetlands and Spurn Heritage Coast. Gather your entire group at The Old Police House.
Withernsea, a well-liked beach community, is located in Yorkshire's East Riding. This cosy coastal retreat offers a laid-back vibe and is ideal for family getaways. The town's flat, agricultural surroundings provide some breath-taking vistas and a wild, windswept atmosphere to clear the cobwebs! A Napoleonic stronghold, a large nuclear bunker that offers award-winning tours, and a lighthouse that is now a museum are some of the historical attractions in the nearby communities. The three-mile-long, spindly, and eerie Spurn Peninsula may be found farther along the coast. Withernsea's sand and pebble beach has a majestic entrance like a tower, plenty of wonderful fish and chip cafés nearby and more. Withernsea has two shops for your convenience, a classic promenade, gorgeous gardens, children's playgrounds, and entertaining attractions like amusements.
